LIFE is a VERB. So is ADVENTURE!
I'm a sparkplug & I argue with the little red Devil in my imagination, daily.
I am getting my body adventure-ready. I want to (actually) hike the Inca Trail, climb a mountain, trek through Africa, backpack through Italy, go spelunking, scale a cliff-face in the Mediterranean, charge across a glacier, scuba dive through shipwrecks, run the NYC Marathon and tons of other ridiculously impossible other things.

I am getting my body adventure-ready. I want to (actually) hike the Inca Trail, climb a mountain, trek through Africa, backpack through Italy, go spelunking, scale a cliff-face in the Mediterranean, charge across a glacier, scuba dive through shipwrecks, run the NYC Marathon and tons of other ridiculously impossible other things. It all starts with getting strong. This is my second, and last chance to live my life to it's fullest- and I know in my bones that nothing can hold me back.
I've hiked in the Grand Canyon, skiied in the Rocky Mountains, crawled through the sink-hole caves in Florida, snorkeled in the Caribbean, roadtripped across the USA, and more. But it is not nearly enough.
I spent 4 years in physical therapy after being hit by an 18 wheeler on my 21st birthday and now I can run and swim and ski and play. I've traveled in Europe by myself at 28 & I moved to NYC from a tiny town on the Louisiana coast at 29, on a whim, and succeeded beyond my expectations.
There is no reason I cannot lose this weight as well (at 30).
But for this... I know I will need help. Please help!

My DONE Statement:
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I am DONE waiting until I am skinny to live my life
I am DONE thinking I am not interesting or worth knowing just because I am overweight
I am DONE thinking there is anything I cannot do, from climbing a mountain to boxing.
I am DONE being anything other than self-actualized and ambitious.
I am DONE saying "maybe someday"
I am DONE hiding my badass self under all this fluff!
I am a DONE GIRL!

My Goals:
I am aiming for 170 lbs by June of 2010, thats 35 lbs to lose. If I can make it to 170lbs - I'm treating myself to either two weeks in Rome, Peru or Paris, depending on the time of the year and my current passion.
-
I want to be able to jump up and down in bed, naked!
-
I want to be able to run through Central Park in just a sports bra and running shorts, without having to worry about covering up everything that jiggles.
-
I want to run in a race, and not place last completely out of breath and half dead.
My Program:
I laugh at myself and celebrate my good decisions.
-
I count my calories and aim for high protein and zero trans fats, less than 5g of saturated fat per week.
-
I run three times a week and strength train daily, even if its just doing 150 crunches while watching Robot Chicken.
~~Current MiniGoals~~
ONEderland reward: 48 hours uninterupted writing time with meals planned for both days to include brain food snacks & fun things to munch on.
Lose 6 pounds in Feb reward: TAKE OFF A WHOLE DAY FROM WORK TO WRITE. Oh yeah, I said it, how motivating is THAT!?! RAWR!
making it to the gym twice a week for all of February reward: new writing/meditation CD by the guys that made the RUN LOLA RUN soundtrack to use to run in the race w/ JACKLIN11.
be able to run 7 miles in one go by the end of February reward: new running outfit that I cannot wear to the gym, only on the sidewalk.
Personal Information:
DONE GIRL OF THE DAY!!!!!!- 01/20/10
I'm 30 years old and I live in NY, NY. I'm a photography student and I love blowing money on healthy food, journaling supplies, boots and photo equipment.
I'm a die-hard single chick. Dating is a waste of my time. I hate it. I'm too busy having fun to be what YOU need.
Other Information:
I have a dirty mouth, I'm an insipid optimist, I'm a little too preoccupied with sex. My reasons for losing weight are NOT the noble, politically correct reasons. Those noble reasons are just a bonus. I basically just want to be able to dress slutty.
